Dear Shareholders,

upon approval of the statutory financial statements as at 31 December 2025, the mandate conferred upon the Directors currently in office, appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting of 27 April 2023, will expire. You are therefore called upon to appoint a new Board of Directors and, in particular: (i) to determine the number of members, (ii) to determine the term of office, (iii) to appoint the members of the Board of Directors, (iv) to appoint the Chairman of the Board of Directors and (v) to determine the remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors.

We recall that the ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 27 April 2023 had resolved to set the number of Directors at nine and the term of office of the Board of Directors at three financial years and that, at the conclusion of that Meeting, three Independent Directors had been appointed.

Composition of the Board of Directors

Article 18 of the Articles of Association provides that:

"The Company is managed by a board of directors composed of an odd number of members ranging from a minimum of 7 (seven) to a maximum of 9 (nine)".

The Shareholders' Meeting, before proceeding with the appointment of the Directors, is therefore called upon to determine the number of members of the Board of Directors within the above limits.

For the purposes of the resolutions to be passed at the convened ordinary Shareholders' Meeting, we also recall that

  • pursuant to Article 147-ter, paragraph 4, of Legislative Decree No. 58/1998 (the "TUF"), at least one member of the Board of Directors, or two if the Board of Directors is composed of more than seven members, must meet the independence requirements established for statutory auditors by Article 148 of the TUF;
  • the Corporate Governance Code approved by the Corporate Governance Committee in January 2020 (the "Corporate Governance Code") provides, in Article 2, Recommendation 5, that the number of Independent Directors shall constitute at least one third of the board of directors;
  • the composition of the Board of Directors must also comply with gender balance requirements pursuant to Article 147-ter, paragraph 1-ter, of the TUF, as introduced by Law No. 120 of 12 July 2011, as subsequently amended. With respect to the term of the new administrative body, the less represented gender must obtain at least two fifths of the Directors elected, rounded up to the nearest unit;
  • pursuant to Article 5, Recommendation 26 of the Corporate Governance Code, at least one Director (member of the "Remuneration and Nomination Committee") must possess adequate knowledge and experience in financial matters or remuneration policies, to be assessed by the Board of Directors at the time of appointment;
  • pursuant to Article 6, Recommendation 35 of the Corporate Governance Code, at least one Director (member of the "Control and Risk Committee") must possess adequate knowledge and experience in accounting and financial matters or risk management, to be assessed by the Board of Directors at the time of appointment.

Mechanism for the appointment of the Board of Directors based on the slate voting procedure

Pursuant to Article 21 et seq. of the Articles of Association, the appointment of the Board of Directors takes place on the basis of slates submitted by the Shareholders, in accordance with the following procedure:

  • the right to submit a slate of candidates is held by (i) shareholders who, individually or together with other shareholders, represent the minimum shareholding threshold in the share capital established by Consob pursuant to the applicable statutory and regulatory provisions in force from time to time, and (ii) the outgoing Board of Directors;
  • each shareholder, as well as shareholders belonging to the same group, shareholders party to the same shareholders' agreement pursuant to Article 122 of the TUF, the controlling entity, subsidiaries and entities subject to common control pursuant to Article 93 of the TUF, may not submit or participate in the submission, even through an intermediary or fiduciary company, of more than one slate, nor may they vote for different slates, and each candidate may appear on only one slate under penalty of ineligibility;
  • acceptances given, and votes cast, in violation of the foregoing prohibition shall not be attributed to any slate.
  • Slates shall contain a number of candidates not exceeding 9 (nine) and in any event not exceeding the number of members to be elected, listed in progressive numerical order. Directors must meet the requirements set forth in the applicable statutory and regulatory provisions in force from time to time and in the Articles of Association. Furthermore, a number of directors not less than the minimum required by applicable statutory and regulatory provisions must meet the independence requirements referred to in Articles 147-ter, paragraph 4, and 148, paragraph 3, of the TUF and in the Corporate Governance Code.
  • Each candidate may appear on only one slate under penalty of ineligibility. Slates shall indicate which directors meet the independence requirements established by law, the Articles of Association and the Corporate Governance Code.
  • Slates presenting three or more candidates must also include candidates of different genders, as specified in the notice of call of the Shareholders' Meeting, so as to allow a composition of the Board of Directors in compliance with the gender balance requirements set forth in the applicable

CY4GATE S.p.A. – Part of ELT Group

In light of the foregoing, the following is brought to the attention of the Shareholders:

  • The filing of slates for the appointment of the Board of Directors may also be carried out by means of remote communication as indicated in the notice of call of the Shareholders' Meeting;
  • any slate submitted by the outgoing Board of Directors must be filed and made public by the thirtieth day preceding the date of the Shareholders' Meeting in first or single call, without prejudice to the time limits established by applicable law for any subsequent calls, and must satisfy, mutatis mutandis, the same requirements provided for the submission of slates by shareholders;
  • Slates must, pursuant to the Articles of Association, be filed together with the following documentation, within the aforementioned time limit:
  • (I) information regarding the identity of the shareholders who submitted the slate and the percentage of share capital collectively held by them; acceptances of the candidacy by each individual candidate;
  • (II) professional curricula vitae of each candidate, containing comprehensive information on the personal (including gender) and professional characteristics of each candidate, indicating the administrative and supervisory positions held in other companies and any eligibility to qualify as independent, assessed against the statutory criteria and those adopted by the Company;

For the purpose of proving entitlement to submit slates, reference shall be made to the number of shares registered in favour of the shareholder on the day on which the slates are filed with the Company. The certification issued by the authorised intermediary pursuant to law evidencing ownership at the time of filing of the slates may also be produced after filing, provided that it is submitted within the time limit set for publication of the relevant slate by the Company.

Slates submitted in breach of the foregoing provisions shall be deemed as not submitted.

Slates shall be subject to the disclosure requirements prescribed by the applicable statutory and regulatory provisions in force from time to time. In particular, at least 21 (twenty-one) days before the date of the Shareholders' Meeting (7 April 2026), slates shall be made available to the public at the registered office of the Company, on the Company's website and on the authorised storage mechanism named "1info", accessible at www.1info.it.

Appointment procedure for the Board of Directors

The election of the Board of Directors shall take place, in compliance with the applicable gender balance regulations in force from time to time, pursuant to Article 21 of the Articles of Association, as follows:

  • from the slate having obtained the highest number of votes, a number of directors equal to the total number of members to be elected shall be drawn, in the progressive order in which they are listed in the slate itself, with the exception of any directors to be drawn from the other slates pursuant to the provisions set out in the following paragraphs;
  • from the slate having obtained the second highest number of votes (the "Second Slate"), provided that such number of votes corresponds to at least half of the shareholding threshold required for the submission of a slate, the following shall be drawn: (i) 2 (two) directors, in the progressive order indicated in that slate, if the number of votes obtained by such slate is at least equal to 10% (ten per cent) of the share capital, or (ii) 1 (one) director, in the progressive order indicated in that slate, if the number of votes obtained by such slate is less than 10% (ten per cent) of the share capital;
  • from the slate having obtained the third highest number of votes (the "Third Slate"), provided that such number of votes corresponds to at least half of the shareholding threshold required for the submission of a slate and that such slate is not connected, even indirectly, with the shareholders who submitted or voted for the Majority Slate and/or the Second Slate, 1 (one) director shall be drawn, being the candidate listed first in that slate;
  • it being understood that, in the absence of a Second Slate and/or a Third Slate, or in the event that one and/or both of them have not obtained a percentage of votes at least equal to half of that required for the submission of a slate, the remaining directors shall be drawn from the Majority Slate in the progressive order indicated therein.

In the event of a tie in votes between slates, a new vote shall be held by the Shareholders' Meeting, with exclusive reference to the slates that tied, with the slate obtaining the highest number of votes prevailing. In the event of submission of a single slate, the Board of Directors shall be composed of all candidates on that slate.

Should the candidates elected in the manner described above fail to ensure the appointment of the necessary number of directors belonging to the less represented gender or the minimum number of Independent Directors required by law, replacements shall be made in accordance with the procedures set out in the Articles of Association, until the composition of the Board of Directors complies with the

CY4GATE S.p.A. – Part of ELT Group

applicable regulations in force from time to time. Should such procedure ultimately fail to achieve the aforementioned result, the replacement shall be made by resolution of the Shareholders' Meeting passed by relative majority, following the submission of candidacies by persons meeting the required qualifications.

In the event that no slate is submitted or admitted, or if for any reason it is not possible to proceed with the appointment of the Board of Directors by means of the slate voting procedure, the Shareholders' Meeting shall resolve by the majorities required by law, without following the procedure set out above, in any event ensuring the presence of the necessary number of directors meeting the independence requirements established by law and compliance with the applicable gender balance regulations in force from time to time.

Appointment of the Chairman of the Board of Directors

Simultaneously with the election of the new Directors, the Shareholders' Meeting may also appoint the Chairman of the new Board of Directors or leave such appointment to the Board of Directors, in accordance with Article 2380-bis, paragraph 5, of the Italian Civil Code and Article 22 of the Articles of Association.

Term of office and determination of the remuneration of the Board of Directors

We also recall that the ordinary Shareholders' Meeting will be called upon to determine the term of office of the new Board of Directors, which shall in any event not exceed three financial years, pursuant to Article 18 of the Articles of Association.

The ordinary Shareholders' Meeting is also called upon to determine the remuneration of the members of the administrative body. In this regard, it is recalled that, pursuant to the Articles of Association, the remuneration of Directors is determined by the Shareholders' Meeting. The Shareholders' Meeting may also determine the aggregate amount of remuneration for all directors, including those vested with special offices; in such case, the Board of Directors shall determine the allocation of remuneration among the Directors vested with special offices, upon proposal of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee, having heard the opinion of the Board of Statutory Auditors.

CY4GATE S.p.A. – Part of ELT Group

In this regard, it is recalled that, pursuant to Article 22 of the Articles of Association, members of the Board of Directors are entitled to an annual remuneration, which may also take the form of profit participation or subscription rights, to be determined by the Shareholders' Meeting. The remuneration so determined shall remain unchanged until a different determination is made by the Shareholders' Meeting. The Shareholders' Meeting may set the remuneration as an aggregate amount for all Directors, including those vested with special offices, and may grant Directors a termination indemnity. The remuneration of Directors vested with special offices in accordance with the Articles of Association shall be determined by the Board of Directors, having heard the opinion of the Board of Statutory Auditors, within the aggregate amount possibly established by the Shareholders' Meeting. Directors are entitled to reimbursement of expenses incurred in the performance of their duties.

Finally, the following are invited:

  • Shareholders submitting their own slates of candidates for the appointment of the administrative body to ensure that such slates are accompanied by all information necessary to enable shareholders to cast their vote in an informed manner, including an indication of any eligibility of the candidates to qualify as independent and of the candidate they intend to propose as Chairman, and
  • Shareholders submitting a slate to formulate and to transmit to the certified email address [email protected] – the proposals functional to the appointment process of the administrative body (determination of the number of members, of the term of office of the Board of Directors, as well as of the remuneration and identification of the Chairman of the Board of Directors), with adequate advance notice, so that such proposals may be published by the Company simultaneously with the slates.

The Shareholders' Meeting of CY4Gate S.p.A. has been convened, in ordinary session, to examine and approve the proposal to revoke the authorisation for the purchase of treasury shares resolved by the Shareholders' Meeting on 26 November 2024, to the extent not yet executed, and to submit to your approval the proposal for a new authorisation for the purchase and subsequent disposal of treasury shares (the "Authorisation"), pursuant to Articles 2357 and 2357-ter of the Italian Civil Code and Article 132 of the TUF, in compliance with the provisions of Article 5 of EU Regulation No. 596/2014 (the "MAR Regulation") and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No. 1052 of 8 March 2016 on the conditions applicable to buy-back programmes and stabilisation measures (the "Delegated Regulation"), as well as accepted market practices.

Si It is recalled that the ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of the Company, on 26 November 2024, authorised (i) the purchase of treasury shares within the limits established by law, to be carried out, also in multiple tranches, within 18 months from the date of approval by the Shareholders' Meeting itself, as well as (ii) the disposal and/or use of treasury shares held in portfolio or that may have been purchased, without time limits (the "2024 Resolution"). In view of the approaching expiry of the term referred to in the 2024 Resolution and the continued existence of the purposes set out below, the Board of Directors deems it appropriate for the Shareholders' Meeting to first proceed with the revocation of the authorisation granted on 26 November 2024, to the extent not yet executed, before approving a new authorisation for a period of 18 months from the date of the relevant shareholders' resolution..

CY4GATE S.p.A. – Part of ELT Group

The terms of the new authorisation are substantially in line with those already provided for under the 2024 Resolution, with respect to both the purchase and the authorisation for the disposal of treasury shares already held in portfolio and of those that may be repurchased in execution of the proposed authorisation for the purchase and disposal of treasury shares submitted for approval to the Shareholders' Meeting.

This Report is made available to the public at the registered office of the Company, on the website of CY4GATE (Section "Governance – Shareholders' Meeting") and on the centralised authorised storage mechanism authorised by Consob named "1Info", accessible at www.1info.it.

Reasons for which the authorisation for the purchase and disposal of treasury shares is requested

The Board of Directors considers the reasons already set out in the context of the 2024 Resolution to remain valid. The request for Authorisation for the purchase and disposal of treasury shares referred to in this Report falls within the initiatives outlined by the Board of Directors, in compliance with Articles 2357 et seq. of the Italian Civil Code, Article 132 of the TUF and the applicable provisions of the Issuers' Regulation, the MAR Regulation, the Delegated Regulation, as well as in accordance with the market practices accepted from time to time.

In particular, the Board of Directors requests a mandate to carry out, within 18 months from the granting of such mandate, the purchase of treasury shares of the Company for the purpose of fulfilling obligations arising from incentive programmes based on the allocation of shares to employees or members of the administrative bodies of the Company or of its subsidiaries or associates, in the context of equity-based incentive plans, in line with the remuneration policies adopted by the Company.

In any event, the intention is to pursue the purposes permitted by the applicable statutory provisions, including those set out in the MAR Regulation, as well as, where applicable, the market practices accepted by CONSOB, it being understood that, upon the ceasing of the reasons that led to the purchase, the treasury shares purchased in execution of this authorisation may be allocated to one of the other purposes indicated above.

CY4GATE S.p.A. – Part of ELT Group

It is specified that the Authorisation request also includes the power of the Board of Directors to carry out repeated and successive purchase and sale transactions (or other disposal acts) of treasury shares, even for fractions of the maximum authorised quantity, so that at any time the quantity of shares subject to the proposed purchase and owned by the Company and, where applicable, by its subsidiaries, does not exceed the limits established by law and by the authorisation of the Shareholders' Meeting, and in any event such purchases are carried out in compliance with the applicable provisions of the TUF, the Issuers' Regulation, the MAR Regulation, the Delegated Regulation and the market practices accepted from time to time.

Maximum number, class and nominal value of the shares to which the authorisation relates

The Authorisation is requested for the purchase, also in multiple tranches, of ordinary shares of the Company, listed on the Euronext Milan market, STAR segment, organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A., up to a maximum number not exceeding in aggregate 1.93% (equal to 454,643 shares) of the total number of shares of the Company outstanding from time to time, in compliance with the provisions of Article 2357, paragraph 3, of the Italian Civil Code.

The Authorisation also includes the power to subsequently dispose (in whole or in part, and also in multiple transactions) of shares held in portfolio, even before having exhausted the maximum number of purchasable shares, and where applicable to repurchase the same shares to the extent that the treasury shares held by the Company and, where applicable, by its subsidiaries, do not exceed the limit established by the Authorisation. Without prejudice to the foregoing, it is noted that, in implementing the treasury share purchase and disposal programme, following the Shareholders' Meeting's possible Authorisation, the Board of Directors will be required to take into account the Company's contractual commitments in force from time to time.

Information relevant for a full assessment of compliance with the provision of Article 2357, paragraph 3, of the Italian Civil Code

As at the date of this Report, the share capital of the Company amounts to Euro 1,441,499.94, fully subscribed and paid up, divided into 23,571,428 ordinary shares, without indication of nominal value.

Compliance with the aforementioned limits must be verified prior to the commencement of each treasury share purchase transaction.

Duration for which the authorisation is requested
